Oregon Roadless Area Timber Sale Announced, Despite Public Opposition
Ask Regional Forester Linda Goodman to Stop Timber Sale in Roadless Areas of Oregon’s Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest
The Forest Service announced last week that it will begin selling timber in Oregon’s roadless areas -- despite strong public support for the protection of these areas. The Mike’s Gulch Timber Sale would be the first logging project in a national forest roadless area since the Roadless Area Conservation Rule was adopted in January 2001. This marks a significant change of direction in the protection of our most valuable public lands. These last remaining pristine roadless areas provide rich habitats for fish and wildlife, clean drinking water for communities and unparalleled recreational opportunities for our families.
Please send the message below to Regional Forester Goodman now. The timber sale is scheduled for this Friday, June 9th.
